🌧️ Everyone, do your best to stay dry today! But more importantly, let's all do our part to keep our parks, trails, and waterways clean! 🌎🌿
Earlier this year, the Rotary Club of Canal Fulton adopted a section of the Ohio & Erie Canal Towpath Trail near Lock 4. As a club, we regularly head out to collect litter and debris that finds its way onto the trail, helping preserve one of our community's greatest outdoor treasures.
Speaking of keeping trash out of our waterways, check out this incredible video shared by one of our Rotary members from the Rio Motagua River in Guatemala! 🇬🇹
A local Stark County business helped design and build a massive floating trash barrier to intercept plastic pollution before it reaches the Caribbean Sea. It's pretty remarkable to see how solutions developed right here in our own backyard are helping tackle environmental challenges around the world!
While the challenges facing our local waterways may not be quite as extreme as those shown in this video, the message is the same: Keeping our communities clean starts with each of us. Whether it's picking up a piece of litter along the Towpath or volunteering for a community cleanup, every little effort makes a difference.
Let's take pride in Canal Fulton and do our part to keep our parks, trails, and waterways beautiful for generations to come!
And of course… GO GUARDIANS! ⚾️❤️💙
